    Our main problem with History Great Empires: Rome is that the historic elements are only surface level and the strategy elements aren’t much deeper than that.

    History Great Empires: Rome delivers minimal production values and suffers from technical issues and a bad interface. This is a battle you don't want to take part in.

There is only one conclusion to be drawn: this product should’ve never made it to the store shelves.

Kind of a very crunched down turn-based dtrategy game, similar in some ways to Civilization. I particularly like the chrome that comes with it, like a Sudoku game with Roman letters, and a scavenger hunt where you walk and sail around the Mediterranean looking for cities. Won't entertain you for very long, but for short bouts of time this is a great little game.… Full Review »
